Abstract The painting object of the present work, currently exposed in the Museum of Colle del Duomo in Viterbo (Italy), has been dated back by art historians to the 16th century and it owes its relevance to a still discussed attribution to Michelangelo Buonarroti. For this reason, art historians and the responsible curator of the Museum commissioned scientific investigations to support and explain their hypothesis about the painting attribution and dating. Here we report the results of two sets of investigation: diffuse reflectance hyperspectral imaging and X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy of the painting; radiocarbon dating and identification of the panel wood. The hyperspectral dataset, coupled with X-ray fluorescence spectra on selected analysis points, reveals the presence of precious ultramarine blue and vermillion pigments, confirming the importance of the painting committer. Wood analysis and radiocarbon dating by wiggle matching technique revealed that the botanical species used for the panel is Cypress (Cupressus sempervirens L.), and enabled dating the painting around AD 1500± 25, providing to art historians a further element for the attribution of the artwork.

超越可见：米开朗基罗·博纳罗蒂（Michelangelo Buonarroti）的维泰博受难面板画

摘要 本作品的绘画对象目前在维泰博（意大利）的 Colle del Duomo 博物馆展出，艺术史学家将其追溯到 16 世纪，这与仍在讨论中的米开朗基罗·博纳罗蒂（Michelangelo Buonarroti）的归属有关。出于这个原因，艺术史学家和博物馆的负责策展人委托科学调查来支持和解释他们关于绘画归属和年代的假设。在这里，我们报告了两组调查的结果：这幅画的漫反射高光谱成像和 X 射线荧光光谱；镶板木材的放射性碳测年和鉴定。高光谱数据集与选定分析点的 X 射线荧光光谱相结合，揭示了珍贵的群青蓝和朱红色颜料的存在，确认绘画提交者的重要性。通过摆动匹配技术进行的木材分析和放射性碳测年表明，该面板使用的植物物种是柏树 (Cupressus sempervirens L.)，并且能够确定这幅画的年代为公元 1500±25 年左右，为艺术史学家提供了进一步的元素来确定这幅画的归属艺术品。
